Abstract (en)
File metadata structures of a file system are analyzed. At least one common metadata element duplicated among an identified plurality of the file metadata structures is identified. The identified metadata element is deduplicated by modifying at least one of the identified plurality of the file metadata structures to reference a same instance of the common metadata element that is referenced by another one of the identified plurality of the file metadata structures.
